Thanks, Bagas, I confirm that it is the same issue:

  1991  git checkout d97a78423c33
  1992  git revert df67699c9cb0ce
  1993  make clean; make olddefconfig
  1994  time nice make -j 36 bindeb-pkg |& tee ../err-6.8-mrg-1.log; date
  1995  sudo apt-get -s install ../linux-image-6.7.0-bagas-vanilla-rvt-09751-g6b082430adc8_6.7.0-09751-g6b082430adc8-26_amd64.deb
  1996  sudo apt-get -y install ../linux-image-6.7.0-bagas-vanilla-rvt-09751-g6b082430adc8_6.7.0-09751-g6b082430adc8-26_amd64.deb

Reverting df67699c9cb0ce fixed it.

I don't have a slightest idea what is the side effect of this commit.
